  • do you believe in.......??

    Do you believe in fate, destiny, what will be will be or anything else???

    I keep hearing alot about fate etc. My personal belief is kind of a middle ground. I believe there are certain places you need to be, certain experiences you need to have etc etc. Although I do believe at the same time that you have to walk your own path. I personally have a massive fear that if I had a powerful belief of fate or destiny that it would enable me to be lazy because what will be will be regardless.

    I dont know if its a valid fear though.

    What do you guys think??

      I do believe in God or a higher power of some sort. I used to go to church and got quite disillusioned about all the different religions fighting between each other. I don't attend church any more but I still believe in God. And I think that he puts us in the right place at the right time for some reason or other, regardless of what else we may want to be doing. Sometimes we suffer and sometimes we benefit and always we come out the other end stronger for the experience.

      I have found that everyone who I meet however briefly, even via the ethernet, has something to show us if we choose to see it.

      I don't think God intervenes too much in our lives, free will and all that.
      I think Humanists have it about right, help each other where we can, and help ourselves to the best of our ability, and we will all muddle through in the end.

      Life is an interesting journey, and some people put more into it than others. That is human nature. One thing is for sure, no-one gets out of it alive, so have the best journey you are able to while you are here, laugh, cry, make the best of what you have, and don't have regrets.

        Personally I don't let it bother me either. If there is a greater plan then I wonder why any of us bother. I regard myself as but a grain of sand but if bychance I become a pearl I obviously was in the right place at the right time.

          I think you can think too much.

          dont think about it, do it.

            I firmly believe my death has been pre-ordained. I will be shot at 97 years of age, caught by a jealous husband as I clamber down the drainpipe outside the bedroom of his 21 year old wife.

            But on a serious note, I believe I was born, I am alive, I will die. I can do very little about any of them.

                Don't believe in God. Do believe in evolution!

                    I am absoloutely a get on with it person, but, I have found myself in situations in which I have felt there was something else involved. Saying that even if I was told to be somewhere sometime I probably wouldnt lol. I like to make my own way but sometimes I get a strange feeling I am being shoved onto the right path.

                    I have no set beliefs. I wouldnt say I am not religious but I haven't settled into anything.

                    I could never be someone that went through life just waiting for "what will happen, will happen" but you see people saying thats how they live their lives on the tv but never actually found anyone to discuss it with.

                      my personal motto is similar, it's 'don't talk about it, do it'

                            "What's for you, will not go by you" - I believe the saying to a certain extent. There are certain things in life preordained but to achieve and enjoy your life to it's fullest, you have to get off your butt

                              I believe that luck/fate plays a part...two people could put the same effort into achieving the same dream but only the one with the lucky breaks achieves it...'right place,right time/wrong place,right time argument'
                              However,those not prepared to put in any effort shouldn't expect their dreams to arrive neatly packaged on the doorstep.
                              the fates lead him who will;him who won't they drag.
